With the prokit installed, are sways still as important, or do the springs alone do a pretty good job at reducing roll?
That quote is ridiculous. Front take about 1 hour. Rear take 30-45 min max. I helped with my install (don't have a spring compressor). It was by far the easiest of any cars I have owned. We took our time and probably BS'd for a good 30min of the total 2 hours. On the flip side, every shop is out there to make money……

Springs did it for me. Adding sway's will depend on what your looking for. I personally do not have a problem with the current amount of body roll. Install the springs, drive it for a week and make your decision from there. One plus is wheel hop dramatically reduced after the upgrade.

Later.

I installed mine myself at work the back springs are so easy it took me an hour to do the back the front was a pain in the neck took me about 3 hours over all....i also did a 4 wheel alignment after to set everything as close to spec....i also installed my GT spec chassis braces to stiffen her up a little bit

When you installed the springs did you also have to get camber adjustment plates. Did you all leave the stock shocks?

The reason I ask is that I am 06 G35 on Monday and looking to drop the car with the stock tires and wheels. My car will have the sports tune suspension on it. Please give me some advise.

I got several quotes for just installation: $720, $650, $500, $350, $220, and $200. I ended up paying $160 with no tax. It was installed yesterday (2/20/02). I am extremely satisfied with Eibach Pro-Kit. The stance has been improved dramatically (not too high or low) and the comfort has actually improved from the OEM sports suspension. I will get an alignment on 2/24/06, allowing the springs some time to settle.

Who did your install in town? And it sounds like you are pleased.
